With our current administration, which is completely rotten and Marxist-complicit from the top down, the terrorists will run rampant in South America. They'll migrate through Mexico and America will be in bigger trouble from yet another front.

"Chavez pledged that his country would 'stay by Iran at any time and under any condition,' state television reported. Ahmadinejad said he saw in Chavez a kindred spirit." "'We do not have any limitation in cooperation,' Ahmadinejad was quoted as saying. 'Iran and Venezuela are next to each other and supporters of each other. Chavez is a source of a progressive and revolutionary current in South America and his stance in restricting imperialism is tangible.'":

Too bad our southern border is wide open.

I have long maintained that America will not get sufficiently serious about Terrorism until TWO of our cities have been vaporized. And perhaps we will get serious real soon now.

If the price of oil goes down further and stays there how ill Iran and Venezuela’s present regimes stay in power?

That is the question.

They may resort to cornered rat tactics.

Since these 'nations' are ruled by lunatics they may resort to typical lunatic responses.

Boom!

That being said, we continue to commit national suicide by buying practically everything from a nation whose missiles are all pointed our way. Additionally, we continue to tolerate Cuber, just ninety miles off our coast. This is due, of course, to the asinine agreement made by the Brothers Kennedy in order to get missiles out of that rogue nation.

Now with this imbecilic marxist moron in charge of things here, and who has surrounded himself with like-minded haters of our country, we're in dire straits.

Monroe Doctrine, anyone?
